National Conference Delegate Playing Scrabble Responds..LOL






The Elder Statesman is University administrator and academician - Professor Oyewale Tomori, the pioneer Vice-Chancellor of Redeemer’s University, Ogun State.
Professor Tomori responded to Trumpet Media Group's report by posting his response on their website after they published a report asking  ''Does anyone have a name for him?''


Below is his response:



"Yes, indeed, I know the person, because I am the one. I have responded to some of the blogs on the matter. The truth is this activity was done during the lunch break between 2-4 pm. As soon as the Chairman calls the meeting to order, I switch off my computer. Is there any rule against spending my free time as I like? Moreover, is there anything wrong, if others engage in reading newspapers and talking with others during their free time, and I prefer engaging in activities, I consider more useful to my development, such as using scrabble to improve my word power and discover new words?. Indeed, I often play against the best in the world, world champions, and I have been beaten many times. But in the process I learnt new words, their meanings and improve my written and spoken language.
"Journalists live and sell their papers through the sensation route, which often is the opposite to telling the truth or providing full details. If the person who posted the picture had said the activity took place during the lunch break, that would have been no news; but to create sensation, he or she was economical with details.
"I will certainly continue to play such other mind engaging games like Sudoku, Logic, etc, if only to make me a better thinker and presenter. Only thing, is I will do this at my own free time!
"Thank you very much
"- Oyewale Tomori"

  1. Don't mind them cerebral Prof Tomori.I'm even impressed that you are fiddling with a laptop at your age, when 90percent of the delegates don't even know where the power button of a computer is located, not to talk of putting it on.

    1. Lecturers always claim to be saints when in actual fact they are not. Imagine playing games during a serious session and he is claiming it was during break. Even in my school, lecturers are always trying to twist the arms of female students just to graduate. I feel like rantingg about them right now.... A certain lecturer in my school, University of Uyo has been on my neck and was even sending me text just becos of sex... He has hreatend to ruin me and he is d HOD of my department. I think I should mention his name maybe he will leave me alone. His name is Professor Ogbonna

  13. If he has all these credentials, then he should right now be contributing information on how to stop the spread of the ebola virus into Nigeria currently causing fears and pandemonium amongst the Nigerian populace most of whom are unaware of what to do

  14. I love the response. Thumbs up, Professor Tomori. To the delegate who snapped the picture and sent it round, how serious were you? You were concentrating and had time to take photos. Well I am saying this if what prof has said is the truth and if the picture was snapped by a delegate.

  22. Doesn't change the fact that he hasn't contributed anything to the conference so far. Just there collecting free money, later he'll start talking about integrity.

  23. Hahaha. Certainly this does not look like a 2 hr break time when many of them are off their seat. Well they have been fooling Nigerians.They can continue.

  30. Now that we have heard the other side, can we hear from the photo journalist who took the photograph. If indeed it was during break time (I believe the Prof) then he deserves and unreserved apology for the the undue sensationalisation of an elder stateman's recreation

  48. Can we all have discerning minds? If they were truly on break, why did the people in front of Prof choose to sit down and look into space?

  52. The legendary Prof was engaging in a mind fruitful exercise when some people were busy struggling with pomo and chatting away the break time. I salute Prof Tomori for clearing the air and hopefully the photographer propagandist can bury his/her head in shame. It is a right to spend your free time as you wish and infact when serious meeting sessions are on some people engage in facebook and other things.
